Every time I open up my YouTube I see a little dot next to the Magpul icon. I'm hoping each time I click on the dot it will be the tmags. Unfortunately they continue to push purses, Fanny packs and other items that no one asked for.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By HappyCamel: My understanding is they're waiting on the injection molding machine to be available...there has been a part stuck in it they can get out. Story goes the Magpul FMG was designed circa 2008, and the first production version got stuck in the machine. They needed a screwdriver to open the machine, but no one could find a screwdriver as the shop was buried in piles to t-shirts and sunglasses. As a result, for years they wandered the shop aimlessly unable to produce any new products. Then in 2021Magpul found out someone at Zev may own a screwdriver, so they partnered to finally get the FMG to market. When the guy from Zev came over with the screwdriver, he was unfortunately fatally buried in a landslide of belts, hats, and stickers. As a result of these challenges, Magpul has had severe difficulties releasing new products since 2008, and they can't get the machine open that they need for the Tmags. If someone has a screwdriver please reach out to them. Not gonna lie, I chortled.

Every other mag goes in no problem but the lancers I have to fight to get to lock in might wanna count the rounds when you load the mag, probably have 31 bullets in the 30 round mag It's variation from rifle to rifle. I have one AR that takes a bucketload of force to lock a full lancer with the bolt closed. Most are normal, and a couple somewhere in the middle. The mags themselves are consistent. Realistically it's a tolerance stack problem and Lancer mags are simply less tolerant of a rifle towards the stack limit. I'm sure they have a team of engineers saying "our mags are fine if the rifle is to spec", but many other mags don't have the same sensitivity. Pmags and USGI mags plop right into my problem rifle. That they're specifically noting the 22% force reduction to load with closed bolt shows they know it is a concern. Having said all of that I still think they are the best mags. If I only had 1 or 2 mags I would want them to be Lancers. Tmags at ~$24 MSRP are basically pointless to me when smoke Lancers can be had for ~$10-12. They need to cost less than Lancers out in the wild. But Magpul has plenty of well earned loyalists and they'll sell 'em just fine. |
